Deep in the heart of Texas, Morganville is a small college town full of laid-back students and eccentric townies, not to mention the sort of creatures you wouldn't want to run into after dark. Despite their obvious differences, the human and vampire residents of Morganville have learned to coexist, but that doesn't stop genius student Claire Danvers from keeping up her guard. Because in Morganville, nothing is as it seems...

While developing a new system to maintain the town's defences, Claire discovers a way to use the vampires' powers to help keep outsiders from spreading news of Morganville's "unique" situation once they've crossed the city limits.

But the new system has an unexpected and possibly deadly consequence: People inside the town start forgetting who and what they are - even the vampires. And when Claire's boyfriend, Shane, and her best friend, Eve, start treating her like a perfect stranger, Claire realizes she has to figure out a way to pull the plug on her experiment - before she forgets how to save herself... and Morganville.

Now, What I Thought:

Most people that have read this book probably have one thought: wow Amelie is a B E O T C H with a capital B. Personally, I like her cruelness :) why, you might ask? HELLO, being a fan of Mrynin and Claire together, what happens in this book is just a big HURRAY.

Without spoiling much, Amelie basically punishes Claire, and her punishment is to work on something with Myrnin in his lab without leaving or anything until its done. Which I will admit is pretty harsh and mean but then some "events" wouldn't happen if she didn't muahahahaahh, now I know what your thinking, OMG DO THEY KISS? unfortunately no, I'm not that mean to make you guess but no they do not, to my dismay :( but something does happen and I'm pretty sure if Shane knew about it, he would be weeping in a corner because soon, Myrnin will sweep Claire away :)

Now being a Claire and Myrnin lover, I will admit that Shane and Claire do have a good, tender moment. I do find myself going back and re-reading some parts where its pretty touching. He loves her so much and its pretty evident in this book.

Some SERIOUS problems happens in Morganville, Claire has done something that she and someone else (but mostly herself) has to fix, and quick! If she doesn't save the town in time, she will lose everyone :(
